Now gather around me blues I'd like to make a toast
Let's all extend three cheers to a guy that's lost the most
I don't want your pity or your sympathy just three cheers for the loser that's me
Well I set out to win her knowin' I might lose
I didn't think I'd end up talkin' to the blues
The only thing that I didn't lose is her haunting memory
Three cheers for the loser that's me
[ steel ]
Now blues I stand before you and I'm still hurtin' yet
The things I've been through you know I won't forget
Still I took it like a man you know I set her free three cheers for the loser that's me
Well I set out to win her
